We've had a request in the club email as follows: can anyone throw some light?

I'm hoping you may be able to help?
I am currently restoring a 1968 Fiat Vignale Eveline and now the welding is almost complete it is to get a respray. I would like to keep it an original colour but I am unable to find any records of the original paint codes for the Vignale Evelines? Would you be able to advise? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Although they don't list that model, perhaps these people may be able to help him

I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Alternatively, try a restoration company like Thornley Kelham (Lancia specialist) in South Cerney, Gloucestershire

Fiats of that vintage often had a paint code at the bottom of the chassis plate, like the example shown https://car-from-uk.com/ebay/carphotos/full/ebay148702487943765.jpg

Or try contacting FCA Heritage Centre in Turin, I can provide details of a contact there from when I visited in 2019, or ask the question (pic of chassis plate would be useful)

The chassis plate seen on this website https://www.artcurial.com/sites/def...10-11/3887_10644032_17.jpg?itok=PzDv9Rvg for an Eveline does not have the extra bit for colour code. There are several pictures on the web of various Evelines in different colours, all claiming to be original colours, but none look to be Fiat 124 colours (at least not the 124 AC Coupe, as far as I remember).
